Is there a way for ships, cars, plains and trains that a order 'goto if full' is add. Sometimes there is a lot of cargo and than the train has to go to a differnd station to unload.

When you say 'goto if full', do you mean skip to a different station on the list of stops, or make a special exception and go to a different station not on the regular list of stations?

There are things called conditional orders that might help, which are explained here far better than I could ever do, and they do allow for jumping over the regular order of stations to visit at if conditions are met, from what I can tell from that page.

Yes, you can add a conditional jump to any order in the order list. The condition can be based on the current load percentage of the vehicle — that is, jump if the load percentage is greater than, equal to, or smaller than a certain value. This allows to implement both "skip when full" and "skip when empty" conditions.

You may want to set the jump condition to load percentage of, say, 80% or more, so that the vehicle doesn't make a large detour only to pick a few units of cargo. But keep in mind that stations which are frequently skipped suffer a rating drop and collect less cargo.
